WRITTEN EXERCISE #01 - T23.3 TOPIC 23 MOTION, FORCE & ENERGY SUBTOPIC 23.3 MASS AND WEIGHT ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS 1 The table shows the weights of some masses on the surface of four different planets. Which planet has the greatest gravitational field strength? mass weight A O.5kg 20N B 2.0kg 20N c 0.5kg 40N D 2.0kg 40N 2 Which property of a spacecraft is zero when it travels through outer space after leaving Earth's gravitational field? A. its density B itsenergy © itsmass D- itsweight 3. What are two correct characteristics of mass and weight? mass weight measured inkg measured in kg ‘measured in N ‘measured in N ‘can be measured using a spring balance | can be measured using a beam balance canbe measured using a beam balance | canbe measured using a spring balance oo wm > saLIVEWORKSHEETS4 Astone on Earth has a mass of 80g, On Earth, the acceleration due to gravity g = 10N/kg, 8). Explain the difference between mass and weight. a {b) Calculate (i) the mass of the stone in ke, a (i) the weight of the stone on Earth. a 5 Astone has a mass of 2.0 kg. ‘The gravitational field strength, gon the Earth’s surface is 10 N/kg. (a) Calculate the weight ofthe stone on the Earth's surface, weight: seven N (] (b) On the Moon, the gravitational field strength is less than on the Earth. The stone is taken to the Moon.
